GN'Rs place in rock history is already solidified. They were one of the biggest bands in the world from '88-'93 and were thought by many to be the next Rolling Stones and then they imploded. The AFD5 reuniting or not reuniting 27 years after they last played together won't change the band's legacy. It'll be part of their story when they finally call it quits, but not their legacy/place in history. And c'mon man.

Popular Post tsinindy Posted May 18, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2017 Just wanted to pipe in on this, unless I've missed it, I've heard nothing that KLOS has an "exclusive" announcement, they are just advertising an announcement. It is very likely that whatever KLOS is going to announce may already be announced by the band prior to them announcing it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CD isn't that bad of an album Totally untrue, a reunited original 5 with another album that was even minimally successful or critically acclaimed would greaten their legacy exponetially. Legacy and place in history are two completely different things. 1 minute ago, Spirit said: Maybe... But I think show announcements are usually coordinated between the promoter and radio stations. To the extent that....promoter tells radio station when they can put information out there. As with the dates last year and this coming year in the US, those were announced by the band first, but many radio stations had their own "announcement". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that an album would help their legacy a lot, but playing a one off show wouldn't change anything drastically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMathski Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I'm going to take a stab at this and say the "announcement" will be a special 30th anny show. But they won't announce specifically who will play, they'll just say "special guests" will be there. As far s venue I'll say Staples or the Forum. And maybe multiple dates 2 or 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CD isn't that bad of an album i agree their legacy is remarkable, especially for the short period of time they were actually a working band, not to mention how young they were. i guess my point is that i would rather see them go out as a band that got it together in the end rather than a band that imploded in the beginning. regardless, what they've achieved together will be remembered forever. and i'm so so sorry my friend… but axl's solo record with hired employees that his lawyers enabled him to call "guns n' roses" is THAT bad. all those layers can't hide the fact axl was lost and angry and needed his bandmates. imho. but staying on topic… i do hope WHATEVER is announced is positive, is new, is fresh, and is something that propels the band forward... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see where you're coming from with the first part. I guess I'm just not as excited by it because I wasn't around for the original incarnation of the band. I'd be perfectly content if they just changed the setlist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I was saying they will announce AFD5 concert,..., people will rush out and get tickets for the American leg thinking that Izzy and Steven will be there seeing that there is a AFD concert they won't be there.. it's a plot from guns for people to buy tickets for the American concerts.. i bet it's a AFD5 concert and then a tour with the people that are in there now..

Tourettes2400 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Fuck, I really want to know what it is. I guess it really doesn't matter any way, since I am having back surgery next Friday. Not like I would be in a hurry to fly some where while I am getting short term disability lol. If I do decide to do something crazy like that I will upload the video for you guys. I am sure my wife's reaction would be pretty entertaining.....at least for you. Probably will be a LA show for the AFD anniversary or something along those lines.

I'm much more into this "new album" or "new song" thing..but I really feel that this time is an AFD5 Reunion. Of Course that I could be wrong, but whoever this is just a feeling.

Just because a local Radio station knows just makes it more plausible that the announcement will have something to do with an LA show. They'd want as many people to hear about it as possible to maximise ticket sales, so good old fashioned local radio exposure can't hurt. If it was new material or anything else they wouldn't need the help of some random radio station to help announce it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the "huge" announcement, as the radio put it, ends up being a mere show L.A. And it was previously announce by the band in their official website. Why would anyone bother to listen to that radio? What's the point to listen to the same lame ass announcement twice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YourMother'sDruthers Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Manage your expectations. This "huge" announcement is just going to be about a show, not new music or a afd 5 reunion.

bucketfoot Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 (edited) As mentioned, no way would a local radio station announce new music, anyone who thinks it'll be this needs to give their head a shake.
